MOORE WILSON'S APARTMENT

PROJECT TYPE:MULTI-UNIT RESIDENTIAL

USE:APARTMENT

LOCATION:TE ARO

CLIENT:MOORE WILSONS

ARCHITECTS:ATHFIELD ARCHITECTS

PROJECT TIMEFRAME:2012 - 2013

This multi-level single dwelling occupies a corner of the first-floor Moore Wilson's carpark. With its unique and bespoke cladding and specialist German-designed windows, the apartment creates a striking aspect to the corner of College and Tory Streets.

The big challenge was to integrate the apartment with the carpark and Moore Wilson's store. Both the site footprint and the impact on tenants had to be minimised. Good communication and constant contact between Moore Wilsons and LT McGuinness quickly resolved any issues that arose. The final result is a building ideally suited to its surroundings.
